Hello,
KOreader accepts both DICT and DICT.DZ files. Is there a speed increase if I uncompress the DICT.DZ file and use the DICT file? DICT.DZ is a few times smaller in size as compared to DICT, and it should make sense to be stored compressed if the parsing algorithm allows for smart local uncompressing. For overall performance which one is advisable to use?
Thank you.
